Rick
left this life on October 30, 2012. He will be remembered by many
friends and fans for his contribution to to the local music scene in Dayton, Cincinnati and beyond.Rick was an authentic and unique person, whose talent, clever sense of humor, and devotion to the people and interests he loved will not soon be forgotten.

"What's
amazing about Rick is that he has a steel trap mind when it comes to
songs and lyrics. One of the joys of working with him is he can play
anything, (from the) the Doors to hippy-country music...The man can do
so much with an acoustic guitar. I think it's because of the love he
puts into it." -
